Have people seen this? It’s being described as a story of business and romantic clashes. And yes, it is causing some to make comparisons to a certain primetime soap opera set in the world of big oil. Demi Moore stars alongside Jon Hamm and Billy Bob Thornton. Okay, I just came across the first trailer, and I might as well post it as well.

Mr. Mom was one of those movies that, when it happened to air on cable, had to be consumed and enjoyed…like comfort food. Not too long ago, we lost Martin Mull, now Teri Garr. R.I.P.

A Latino Democratic operative raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to be able to send a text blast of Hinchcliffe insulting PR to every registered voter with a mobile phone who identifies as Puerto Rican in the state of Pennsylvania.

Even The Hill, a media blog that I normally have very little use for, is stating that the Trump campaign is struggling to contain the crisis they’ve created from the MSG rally. Also, I won’t post it, but has anyone seen the latest cover from the German publication Stern? Just whoa.

This seems fun. And smart.

Today was pretty exhausting. Had to tell someone “I don’t know what your problem is, but please leave me out of it”. It’s like, I had to put someone on “Ignore” IRL. I have a project I am working on but unfortunately, people don’t respect boundaries and now I have to ‘draw a line in the sand’ and end my association with them. All on a Monday. Sigh.

You’re welcome. I appreciate PBS Newshour’s coverage of aspects that can often get overlooked by mainstream media. Thanks for post that graphic as I know people’s eyes will gravitate more easily to that than to my post. I briefly considered trying to embed but I don’t really bother with “X” these days,if I can help it. I meant to direct the second part of my message to @Vee. Man, I am tired today!

Woodward and Bernstein also issued a joint statement declaring their disappointment with WaPo’s decision. 200,000 subscribers have terminated their digital subscriptions for WaPo. Very important perspective presented in this video. Really important to keep in mind, especially in times like these.

I know that television is often referred to a the “great wasteland” but the newspaper business, at least for the moment, appears to have taken a nosedive off a cliff into a sea of rubble.

Even though I don’t watch daytime soaps anymore (hopefully this changes early next year), I would nominate Jill Foster Abbott. I am continually disappointed and shocked that a character who has been on the canvas since the earliest days of the Young and the Restless, who is portrayed by such a capable actress as Jess Walton has so little impact. And this was the case years before she moved to Oregon. The show often gave her B-level storylines for years before she decided to move. I have often posted that Jill should have not only been a major titan, on par with the likes of Victor Newman and Jack Abbott, she should also get the types of prominent storylines that they often get. The show has never thought to sideline Victor Newman but does so repeatedly to a character that outranks him in seniority.

Honestly, I have heard nothing about George Lopez. I honestly had no idea what it is you are talking about. Maybe because I live in the NYC tri-state area, it’s all over the news. AOC is upset about it and has a huge platform, she already has a discussion with Tim Walz posted on her YouTube channel. Lest we forget, Puerto Ricans don’t only live in the NYC metropolitan area. There has been an influx of migration from the island to Florida and Pennsylvania, and other states…if the Trump campaign weren’t panicked about this they wouldn’t be doing backflips to try to dissociate themselves from this comedian.

Yeah, I won’t respond either, except to say that as a writer, you are dooming your own work to failure if you focus on who isn’t going to like what you have written or created. That is a guaranteed recipe for failure. Monti Sharp (or his agent) is someone BTG casting should be on the phone with, for sure. On a side note, I’m not sure why trolls come for me first but I learned my lesson from the Cancelled Soaps thread. Do not engage. Maybe I need some repellent or something.

Heyyyy Giovanni!!

Also, the unnecessary ringing of hands of Dems can only be tolerated for so long before it becomes very very tiresome. I understand not wanting people to become complacent by downplaying chances but it risked encouraging people to feed into a doom loop of hopelessness. Hopefully this will give people some positive reinforcement.

Yes, definitely and I would say the same of that town where that Yemeni mayor of the Michigan town has endorsed TFg. There is a serious split there as other Muslims who reside there, who are originally from nations like Bangladesh and other nations vehemently oppose this mayor’s endorsement and it may very well cost him his position in the end as he has angered many, not just other Muslim residents who balk at endorsing a candidate with such anti immigrant and anti Muslim rhetoric. Apparently, the chaos at the L.A. Times has been going on for several months with the executive editor resigning in January of this year. That’s a lot of turbulence.

The least surprising thing I have heard all day. X’S ‘BLACK INSURRECTIONIST’ ACTUALLY A WHITE MAN FROM UPSTATE NEW YORK, REPORT

Those of us who have been paying attention to Harris’ work over several years are already aware of these initiatives but it is somewhat unfortunate that she feels as if she cannot (or perhaps was advised not to) speak about her work in these areas, especially seeing as it has yielded some genuine and substantial benefits to many in need. The Policy Record Harris Isn’t Talking About

President Biden demonstrated the courage of his convictions to stand up and speak a direct, genuine and heartfelt apology on behalf of the government to the victims of those forced to live at those boarding schools constructed for Native American children. It needed to be said and Biden declared that the apology was overdue. This is what leadership looks like and needs to continue to be going forward.

Oh, I definitely agree that he has vast cognitive and perhaps physiological infirmities.

Lauryn runs hot and cold. Any performance involving her son Y.G. and she shows up! She did a sizzling set in Jamaica over the summer which left many of her U.S. fans steamed. There, she not only showed up, she showed out! It was actually phenomenal. Sorry to those folks she bailed on previously but she demonstrated that when she actually puts the effort in, she still ‘got it’. And thankfully, she’s not running for president, although people seem hold her to a higher standard than a man who is running for president. Go figure.

Lauryn Hill without the brilliance or talent of any kind. Trump must be bored with his own rallies.

Even Trump is bored with his rallies. How much off beat swaying to Lee Greenwood can one do before losing what shred of interest remained?

He hasn’t gotten to the unwashed and unkempt stage of the transformation yet like others such as Mel Gibson who looks as if he now eats raw meat regularly, so there’s still more descent yet for Levi perhaps.

It’s pretty special to see Willie Nelson up on stage performing at the Harris/Walz rally right now.
